That is exactly why we need the Uniform Civil Code.This is not to say that the Hindu men care more for woman's rights. They batter their wives,they use their women--just as often as Muslim or Sikh.The only differeence is, if the Hindu woman is determined enough,she can drag the man to the court and get justice.Which the Muslim woman,no matter how headstrong,simply cannot.
By the way,where are the M&M ( read modern and moderate) variety of Assamese muslims,who have not produced a peep against the gaggle of fanatic Mullas and Maulavis?
